It's never too early to start thinking about getting in shape for the Better Half!
Over the last 20 years or so, the ARA-Moe’s Better Half Marathon has evolved into one of the more popular road races in central Texas. Named after San Marcos running guru and race director Dr. Moe Johnson, the ARA-MBHM is known for its challenging and scenic course and often colorful race management.
The half marathon is run on a fairly challenging, certified course on country roads southeast of the Tanger Outlet Center. It is an out-and-back course that includes a loop of approximately 9 miles. The course is fairly flat between miles 4 and 5.5, and again between miles 7 and 8.5; the rest is moderately-rolling hills, with one rather nasty one at mile 3.5.
